IQ tests accurately predict your ability to perform on IQ tests and not much else.
I always scored ridiculously high on standardized tests (IQ, SAT, ACT, etc.) Yet for some reason I still flunked out of college my first time around (probably having something to do with my never going to class).
You can be a genius and still be stupid.
I totally agree. About the IQ tests anyway. SATs and ACTs require some geniune specific knowledge. Some people jsut test better then others in general.
As Tater Salad sez "You can't fix stupid"
